About Poetry

About Poetry

Poetry (from the Latin poeta, a poet) is a form of literary art in which language is used for its aestheticand evocative qualities in addition to, or in lieu of, its apparent meaning. Poetry may be written independently, as discrete poems, or may occur in conjunction with other arts, as in poetic drama,hymns, lyrics, or prose poetry. It is published in dedicated magazines individual collections and wider anthologies.

Poetry and discussions of it have a long history. Early attempts to define poetry, such as Aristotle'sPoetics, focused on the uses of speech in rhetoric, drama, song, and comedy. ater attempts concentrated on features such as repetition, verse form and rhyme, and emphasized the aesthetics which distinguish poetry from more objectively informative, prosaic forms of writing, such as manifestos,biographies, essays, and novels . From the mid-20th century, poetry has sometimes been more loosely defined as a fundamental creative act using language.

Poetry often uses particular forms and conventions to suggest alternative meanings in the words, or to evoke emotional or sensual responses. Devices such as assonance, alliteration, onomatopoeia, andrhythm are sometimes used to achieve musical or incantatory effects. The use of ambiguity, symbolism,irony, and other stylistic elements of poetic diction often leaves a poem open to multiple interpretations. Similarly, metaphor, simile, and metonymycreate a resonance between otherwise disparate images—a layering of meanings, forming connections previously not perceived. Kindred forms of resonance may exist, between individual verses, in their patterns of rhyme or rhythm.

Some forms of poetry are specific to particular cultures and genres, responding to the characteristics of the language in which the poet writes. While readers accustomed to identifying poetry with Dante,Goethe, Mickiewicz and Rumi may think of it as being written in lines based upon rhyme and regularmeter, there are traditions, such as Biblical poetry, that use other approaches to achieve rhythm andeuphony. Much of modern British and American poetry is to some extent a critique of poetic traditionplaying with and testing (among other things) the principle of euphony itself, to the extent that sometimes it deliberately does not rhyme or keep to set rhythms at all. In today's globalized world poets often borrow styles, techniques and forms from diverse cultures and languages.

Ref: Complain letter regarding the non working of the refrigerator

Dear Mr.Shendyadi,

On 01 December, 2010 I have purchased a refrigerator from your showroom. Its model no. is 185665 and Receipt no. is 1032. After installation it was working fine for a week but then its cooling system has broken down.

I first made a verbal complaint about the issue but no action was taken for about a week. Then again I complaint about the problem and one of your engineers came and did the inspection. He advised me to change the complete set as there was some technical problem with the cooling system which could not be fixed permanently.

Therefore, I request you to kindly change the refrigerator as it is still in the warranty period. I am enclosing the copy of the bill and other documents for your reference and hope that my request will be entertained very soon.


Sincerely,

Maintaining Health

Ø Observations of Daily Living

Personal health depends partially on one's active, passive, and assisted observations about their health in their everyday life. The information gleaned from such observations may be used to inform personal decisions and actions as well as clinical decisions and treatment plans for patients who share their observations with their health care providers.

Ø Social Activity

Personal health depends partially on the social structure of one's life. The maintenance of strong social relationships is linked to good health conditions, longevity, productivity, and a positive attitude. This is because positive social interaction as viewed by the participant increases many chemical levels in the brain which are linked to personality and intelligence traits.

Volunteering also can lead to a healthy life. To be a volunteer, while gaining plenty of social benefits, people also take their mind off their own troubles] Volunteering could even add years of life. According to a university studycompared with people who did not volunteer, senior citizens who volunteered showed a 67% reduced risk of dying during a seven-year period.

Ø Hygiene

Hygiene is the practice of keeping the body clean to prevent infection and illness, and the avoidance of contact with infectious agents. Hygiene practices include bathing, brushing and flossing teeth, washing hands especially before eating, washing food before it is eaten, cleaning food preparation utensils and surfaces before and after preparing meals, and many others. This may help prevent infection and illness. By cleaning the body, dead skin cells are washed away with the germs, reducing their chance of entering the body.
